Welcome back! Python is an awesome programming language with a ton of capability, if you’re new to Python, check out the link below to learn more about it:

A massive change is happening to Python, specifically with PyPi, which is a repository that holds a bunch of the packages for Python. This new change is with Tweet below from the official PyPi Twitter page:

You can see that this Tweet shows us that 2 factor authentication will soon be a requirement for packages hosted on PyPi, why is this important? If you remember not too long ago, there were tons of Python packages that were found to have malware, viruses, and other issues that were hosted on PyPi, with this new change, I’m sure this will improve the security of PyPi!
